This instrument has been SOLD. I walked into the music store as they where packing it up for shipping today.

That's very cool and interesting. BTW the missing link was found.... Curly Q Link. I stand corrected, my Cruise is a 95.

Hey velorush, My 90 Chap neckjoint looks like the 96 Cruise neckjoint only the Cruise is a bolt-on neck. Looking forward to more in-site into this. Most-likely there is no rhyme or reason. 

A picture of my 1990 Chaparral Bass neck joint compared to this 1989 that is for sale. What is the deal with the Chaparral neckjoint differences and why?

Please correct me if I am wrong. I believe this Cruise has passive DiMarzio pickups. They are loud as hell and sound amazing. I've been playing my Chaparral up until acquiring this Cruise last week.  The Chaparral has EMG's and are also amazing but these passive pickups are twice as loud. The...

Quick shout out to @velorush@Jimbillyand@Dave Scepter for troubleshooting steps, overall knowledge and recommendations. My Chap is back in business..... Replaced the input jack and the battery, soldered the red the green and the black wires to the input jack. She sounds good as the day I bought...

Thank you for providing info on this issue. I appreciate your time getting back to me on this matter. So are you saying the green wire that is coming off the body of the Tone pots (has a gob of solder) should be on one of the three posts of the Tone pots? Does it matter which post on the Tone...

I apologize if this question has already been address. I have a 90 Chaparral Custom bass that has recently been giving me intermittent issues with output. It's probably the input jack and should probably be replace but wanted to ask you all before throwing parts at it. To describe the issue I...
